A Big Joke!! Here We Go Again....

The Rwanda Office of Tourism, ORTPN is magnifying this year's Gorilla naming ceremony by bringing the Nigerian Duo of Peter and Paul Okono famously known as the P-Square to Kigali late this month.
I don't want to presume but from past experience, i can very politely confess that i have little faith, if any, in the success of this concert. Please hear right, considering the fact that this show is involving the 4Real Promotions, who have had their share of troubles and accusations from local artists who have been the curtain-raisers for foreign artists who have been here previously... It has come to my attention that most of these local artists had somehow decided to boycott any concerts organized or involving in anyway the 4Real Promotions.
Am not implying here that without local artists the P-Square wouldn't pull a satisfactory crowd.. To the contrary, even though the local artists play a pivotal role in such circumstances, the P-Square has had a fair bit of success with their previous releases, such as Busy Body, Do Me and many more... However, with the funny, or rather ridiculous figure i heard is going to be the entrance fee, please give me a chance to have my last laugh...
All in all, am happy Rwanda is going to be hosting great artists after some time of wannabe's mimicking greater talented artists from abroad...

"AM NOT SATISFIED &WILL NEVER BE SATISFIED UNTIL A RELEVANT EFFORT IS MADE TO PROMOTE RWANDAN MUSIC"
kudos for ortpn gorilla naming ceremony they realy proved that rwanda is a country to visit before you die.............but they should be warned that 2munch of anything is poisonous.i mean am disapointed by the institutions decision in paying so called internatonal artists highly &puttin their boring ads on tv wharelse we have our very own artists who are more talented than those nigerian&ugandan "losers"
i personaly passed my complaint on rwandan artists being involved in the naming ceremony to ortpn director rosette rugamba only to get a mere&ashaming reply that says"kwita izina ceremony was a bigger event which only proffesional artists from nigeria would only perform while not expirienced rwandan artists sit back&learn.........puulez madam ortpn is that the diplomatic way ro talk ,about your beloved country
.......nasty what does this mean rwandans are being forced by abunch of blind leaders that we dont have pontentials as musians &artists but i & da help from you we can prove them wrong by winning all the possible local&international awards
........cya as 4 me i still have a bone to pick witha organaisers

I am actually amazed by the fact that all of a sudden it is the P square and not the Quiter Easener thing. For heavens sake what is what????
anyhow thank God its about the pple and not the Ngajje because i hate the fact that the quitter Easener thing has just shifted goal posts from humans to primates. Is it because some of you do not believe in the story of creation??? i mean is it because you believe that these giants are your cousins that you have to make a big deal out of naming them? who knows if they have not named each other already...come outright and tell us its a dime minting venture...hope they will call themselves by their new names...success
